3/5 = 0.3 * x
3/5 is 30% of x - This is how they match up from the word problem to a number sentence
So to solve it...
3/5 = 0.3x
x = 3/5 ÷ 0.3 = 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:x+y+z=100(let x ,y,z represent the first second and third numbers respectively)
Therefore,y=2z
z=x-8
y=2x-16
substituting the values of x,y and z into the question,we have
x+(2x-16)+(x-8)=100
Simplifying,we have
4x-24=100
adding 24 to both sides of the equation,
4x=100+24
4x=124
dividing both sides of the equation by the co-efficient of x,we have
4x/4=124/4
4.31=124
therefore,x=31.
Answer:
k = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 2k from both sides
_5k+8= -37
subtract 8
_5k = -45
divide by 5
_k = -9
Answer:
The discount percentage has been given: ($ 65 / $ 79) x 100 = 82.27%
